The "Queer eye for a straight guy" crowd would really lo-o-o-ove this arrangement!
Mucho macho! Personal advise: never let your wife into that room: chicks do not dig it....

Very neat and tidy, well thought out display, a lot harder than you would imagine. My eclecticism defeats my disipline, my exscuse for random disorder. Tim

Very impressive. I would love to see the blades on those swords and daggers though.

Oh come on Lew! You didn't "throw" anything together, you thought about it, laid it out and came up with a nice, balanced display. It really appeals to my Libra sensibilities. Well done!

Great wall
A nice shield always balances a display.

Have you tried the spear horizontally on top, and kaskara and takouba crossed over below the shield? Will be more compact and balanced.

Unfortunately it is a short wall there is a closet on the right side and the spear is 6ft long. As far as crossing the swords go the leather on the kaskara is fragile and it would put too much stress on it to hang it in that position. Lew |
